When installing Paint.Net, Quick Install, all goes well until it stops and tells me that "The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM...," and "Insert the Paint.Net v. 3.35 disk."

I have Windows XP, SP 3, with MS Framework 3.5 SP1 and all current updates installed.

What's wrong?

I wanted to say THANKS for a very useful and informative article! I have an ancient (really old) version of PaintShop Pro - these tools look so much more powerful and easier to use!

I hope we can look forward to a similar article on free audio editing tools. That would be awesome!

Thanks again!
